About this listen

The year in 1801. In this section, all the principal characters are introduced. Mr Lockwood, the new tenant of Thrushcross Grange, arrives at Wuthering Height to meet his landlord, Heathcliff. The next day, he encounters Hareton, the orphaned son of Hindley Earnshaw, and Heathcliff’s daughter-in-law, Cathy Linton. During the night, Lockwood is disturbed by the vexed ghost of Cathy’s mother, Catherine - the story’s heroine- at the window. Lockwood’s cries of terror alert Heathcliff and the section ends with a distraught Heathcliff begging his beloved Catherine to return to him.

One of the best abridged versions ever of this classic. Excellent narration. Makes a great alternative to the full book and movie adaptations. Highly recommended.
